Bis{2-[(2-pyrid-yl)imino-meth-yl]phenolato}copper(II).


ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Cu(C(12)H(9)N(2)O)(2)], the Cu(II) atom lies on a crystallographic inversion center and has a nearly square-planar geometry. The Cu(II) center coordinates to the phenolic O and azomethine N atoms of the two symmetry-related 2-[(2-pyrid-yl)imino-meth-yl]phenolate ligands. The pyridyl N atoms do not coordinate to the Cu(II) atom but participate in intra-molecular C-H?N hydrogen bonding. ?-? stacking between the benzene rings and between the pyridyl rings [centroid-centroid distances 3.8142?(5) and 3.8142?(5)?Å, respectively] links the mol-ecules into a chain propagating parallel to [100].
